Chapter 1359 - 1327: Spiritual Vision Enhancement

"Ooo~"

A long and hollow sound, much like the wind blowing through, came from the face of the Ancient God.

Though not a loud volume, it had already caused ripples in the air around Him.

It was apparent that this Ancient God now clearly understood His situation.

——He was trapped in the same ’narrow vision’ as mortals!

What exactly were those three lights?

Why did a mere mortal, whose vision and status were so narrow and lowly, possess such things?

The Moon God could not comprehend because, in His world, only entities with equivalent status and vision as the Ancient Gods could oppose Him.

However, regardless of whether the Moon God understood or not, the current situation forced Him to ’understand and accept’ it!

Determining that He could no longer ’ascend back to the heavens’, the Moon God decisively shifted His course of action.

Being suppressed within a ’narrow vision’ was too perilous for the Ancient God and could not be continued.

And to escape...

"Whoosh!"

Amidst the wind that rustled His tentacles, the Moon God’s malformed elliptical face turned aside from His claws and looked up at the distant mortal.

The next instant!

"Bang!"

Like a feline, the grotesque, skeletal Ancient God suddenly sprang forth from a crouched posture of vigilance!

Enormous strength caused His hind legs to push off the ground, unleashing a reactive force that upheaved a massive amount of earth and stone, surpassing His own size!

Sands and stones scattered explosively, mingling with crushed white petals blown into the air.

His bloodthirsty, gaunt claw appeared suddenly, as if skipping frames in a video, striking directly at Lann!

Even though He had temporarily lost the Ancient God’s most crucial ’vision’ and ’status’.

The Ancient God, suppressed at the physical level, was still far mightier than those monsters in Yan’an, which merely evolved under the influence of the Ancient God’s Blood!

The malformed, gaunt claw swung down, and even without substantial contact, the wind pressure threatened to crush the ground, grinding the field of flowers to smithereens!

However, for Lann, who once used his own skills to navigate and battle against an Ancient Dragon... this was a level of power he could understand and handle!

The moment the Moon God’s body arched, Lann, eyes profoundly focused on Him, was already a step ahead!

"Swish."

The Demon Hunter wielded a smoothly curved and exquisitely carved long blade, seemingly as if testing a slash, or perhaps an aimless wave.

The sharp sword wind extended from the blade, though it made no contact, cutting smoothly through a white petal along its trajectory.

And just after Lann’s seemingly casual empty swing, in the subtle and precise window of time!

The very next moment, the Moon God’s claw with its massive wind pressure came down right on Lann’s head!

And this overwhelming pressure was exactly one of the things required by a technique the Demon Hunter practiced.

[Tachi Technique·Severing Slash]!

"Ding!"

The young Demon Hunter’s body immediately erupted with a layer of shallow red Fighting Spirit Light Flame!

The lively, life-full rose-red, distinctly different from the drab, oppressive blood-red of the moon above!

The detonation of the Fighting Spirit, under the specialized technique system, issued a crisp sound.

And Lann himself seemed as light as a piece of paper, easily ’wafted’ by the Moon God’s claw’s wind pressure to a safe spot.

Moreover, this surging pressure instead boosted the vibrancy of this Fighting Spirit even further!

"Screech!"

[Qi Blade Grand Spin]!

The piercing, sharp sound of slicing through air burst forth suddenly!

With one hand on the blade, holding the long blade flat at his side, his whole body spun in a circle, flinging a thin, sharp light red trace of Fighting Spirit in mid-air!

The nearly boiling Fighting Spirit was compressed and concentrated again as it cut into the Ancient God’s body, becoming a shimmering, pale layer of white light on the blade.

[Qi Blade Ascension·White Blade]!

Rapidly flowing and stable Fighting Spirit seemed to add a fine, high-speed rotary saw-like edge to the already razor-sharp blade.

It expanded the destructive force even further.

And almost simultaneously as Lann executed the [Qi Blade Grand Spin].

When the Moon God’s unstriking claw didn’t meet its target, He reacted immediately.

Lann, with the skills of a mortal, completely differed from the style she was familiar with from the Yan Nan Hunter!

So, when she missed a lethal slap, not even hitting at all, the Moon God immediately used the hand that slapped the ground as a pivot.

Like an acrobatic flip, she planned to use the momentum from the previous strike and the support of her hand to swiftly flip away from the opponent.

Meanwhile, during this maneuver, a multitude of tentacles extending from the spinal cord of the Moon God, resembling a multi-headed whip, attempted to lash out and swipe at Lann.

The main trunk of the Moon God’s body resembled a skeleton smeared with a layer of bloody pulp, yet the tentacles on her head and tail were each robust and resilient.

The dark purple tentacles, the color reminiscent of coagulated corpse spots on a freshly deceased body.

Numerous tail tentacles lashed towards Lann, and before even making contact, they already scraped away nearly a meter thick of topsoil as they swept past the ground!

The flower sea, which had just restored its original state - pure and serene - suddenly appeared to have a grotesque wound gouged out.

Yet, because the tail flick of the Moon God synchronized with the initiation of the "Air Blade Grand Spin."

So, when the two collided, there was the sound of ’stab’ as flesh was torn, and fluids sprayed profusely.

A substantial amount of blood splashed from the severed end of the Moon God’s tail.

The volume of this blood was so large that it defied all logic.

But looking at the Moon God’s current physical form and ancient god identity... things like ’logic’ might not apply to ancient gods.

The sturdy tentacles were cleanly and swiftly severed by the sharp blade, writhing and twitching, bouncing on the ground.

Although the tentacle kept bleeding, the cut surface emitted a continuous sizzling sound resembling burning.

And smoke rose.

The "Light of the Dual Holy Trees" shows no mercy nor tolerance for evil.

Not only the severed tentacle on the ground but even the whole tentacle still attached to the Moon God, now missing a segment, twitched conspicuously amidst her waving tentacle group.

Clearly, the pain was unbearable.

Lann glanced at the tentacle on the ground, which twitched before finally stiffening.

Unintentionally, his eyes, already inexplicably deep, now more akin to black holes absorbing light.

Meanwhile, in the Demon Hunter’s mind, the "Spiritual Vision" as an extraordinary sense, expressed excitement, vitality, and a sense of satisfaction.

This was the feeling of "Spiritual Vision" being stimulated and growing upon encountering profoundly intriguing phenomena.

Through inflicting damage to the body of the ancient god descended upon the material world, Lann’s "Spiritual Vision" rapidly evolved, signifying his understanding of the body and essence of the ancient god before him.

"Stab~"

The long blade held in reverse, the Demon Hunter calmly thrust it into the ground, precisely pinning the still twisting tentacle.

The long blade, resembling a piece of art, made the tentacle on it sound like squid tentacles sizzling on an iron plate.

The dark purple tentacle, initially capable of moving slightly, now tightened straight and stiffened, motionless.

Until the moment it stopped twitching, Lann’s "Spiritual Vision" continued to grow at a soaring pace.

This was precisely the important cause Master William needed to ascertain what level of "Spiritual Vision" he had reached.

... Just the increments in "Spiritual Vision" during the observation of the Moon God were enough to render Lann’s current view of the world somewhat distorted.

The pure and tranquil flower sea contrasted starkly with the blood-stained bone-littered earth, both scenes flashing and flickering like a video glitch, images discordantly interspersed.

As Lann’s "Spiritual Vision" matured through perceiving the ’profound truth’ of this world, this extraordinary sense naturally draws closer to those ’truths’... namely, the ancient gods.

And this was despite his "Spiritual Vision" having matured significantly in another world and observed many other things, ’mixed with much sand,’ thus maintaining his current clarity.

Otherwise, even with protective light preventing enchantment by a mere glance at the Moon God.

His own "Spiritual Vision" might be distorted by witnessing too many ’truths’ about the Moon God, becoming closer to the Moon God’s form.

The power of "Spiritual Vision" originated from this world’s theories and further evolved.

It has entrenched connections with ancient gods, upper beings.

If it were solely pursuing the height of "Spiritual Vision," the day Lann first arrived in Yan’an, Master William could have methodically helped raise his "Spiritual Vision."

In front of this Byron Vis’s steward, academic theories and achievements abounded.

Placed right before you in succession, activating "Spiritual Vision," merely observing them one by one suffices.

But that won’t work, because the "Spiritual Vision" heightened thus won’t stand firm before the ancient gods!

The ultimate, best outcome is merely becoming an affiliate of the ancient gods!

But the current Lann...

"’Spiritual Vision’ is indeed getting stronger."

The Demon Hunter thrust the blade sideways, instantly flinging the tentacle segment impaled on its tip!

"Then before ’Spiritual Vision’ grows distorted, kill you!"
